Bathroom Before and After

As you can see this is the before. Sorry about the poor picture quality but it was the best I could do.
Here is the after. We removed the old tiles that were falling off and put up wainscoting. We laid a new floor that we found at our Home Depot. (Which you can't really see from this picture.) Loved this stuff! It's like peel and stick vinyl strips that are water proof. It was oh so easy to lay and looks just like hard wood floors.
Before:
After: Another lovely Home Depot find. A granite top vanity for $130! It came with the square knobs but we decided to change them to match the ones we put on the built-in drawers I redid.
Here is the before of those built-ins. I love these. It was one of the deciding factors of why I wanted to buy this house. They did; however, need a face lift.
My husband lined the inside with cedar planks. Originally the shelves had a door but I couldn't bare to cover up the cedar once we had them in. So I left it off.
I liked these lights, unfortunately they didn't really work properly and they didn't really match the rest of our accessories. We decided to just remove them, for now, because we couldn't really find any thing that would work there. Maybe some day.
Our toilet that constantly ran and flushed for what seemed like a full minute. I could just see our water bill sky rocketing because of this toilet.
Our new fancy duel flushing toilet. We got it for a steal at Costco for $80! Love it when you find a great deal!

Well that's our bathroom makeover. We still need to redo the tub and shower surround but at least I don't feel like I need to bathe in sanitizer every time I go into our bathroom. Hope you like it as much as I do!
